Practice : Tuesday July 10

Here we go. This is before the Miramar Masters game, with the team already looking at a playoff berth. The potential forfiet would secure a playoff spot and a victory against India United will give us the confidence to be a serious contender during the playoffs.

Practice : Tuesday July 10

Attendees : Chetan, Rishabh, Rakesh, Tanmay and Prateek

Fielding :
Most people looked pretty good with catches.
Chetan has some problem with the easier catches, does not look like a technical issue, might just be a concentration issue.
Rakesh is coming back to cricket after a long time, but looks good.
Slip catching practice with one person chucking the ball and a batsman letting it slide off of the face of the bat works great. It simulates the slip catches very effectively.
Rishabh is shaping up very well as a slip fielder, needs more practice though.

Bowling :
Chetan was getting some great drift going on his offspin. He needs to work on his line a little but he can be a genuione wicket taking option.
Rishabh was consistent as usual.
Prateek needs to remember that trying to do something special fucks up his bowling. As long as I am bowling within myself, the flight and loop looks great.

Batting :
Tanmay was trying a little too hard to be technically correct and that seemed to be messinng up his judgment of flight. He needs to play spinners a lot more to get used to this.

Rakesh looks pretty good coming in after a lay over. He was edgy but playing with straight bat.

We had to cutoff the practice as the lights were turned off soon after Tanmay and Rakesh were done batting.
